NFL Team Logo for Giants New York Giants: Arch Manning, QB, Texas Image for Tex

I imagine there’s a chance the Giants eschew quarterbacks once again in the 2025 NFL Draft so they can use this pick on the quarterback they really want.

The grandson of Archie Manning and the nephew of Peyton and Eli Manning, Arch Manning has been a highly coveted prospect for quite some time and is the favorite to be chosen first overall whenever he declares.

NFL Team Logo for Seahawks Seattle Seahawks: Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU Image for LSU

The Seahawks likely have to start over again in the near future. Here’s a new quarterback to replace Geno Smith.

Garrett Nussmeier has great arm talent and has made the most out of his opportunity replacing Jayden Daniels.

NFL Team Logo for Panthers Carolina Panthers: T.J. Parker, DE, Clemson Image for Clem

The Panthers have severe issues generating pressure on the quarterback. Here’s a replacement for Brian Burns.

T.J. Parker had a breakout sophomore campaign. He has impressive instincts and was very productive.

NFL Team Logo for Patriots New England Patriots: Kayden Proctor, OT, Alabama Image for ALA

New England’s offensive line is in rough shape. Lots of help is needed to protect Drake Maye.

Kayden Proctor is a colossal, 360-pound blocker. He has great potential, but has some character concerns.

NFL Team Logo for Browns Cleveland Browns: Francis Mauigoa, OT, Miami Image for MIA

The Browns are very frustrated with Jedrick Wills, so they could be looking for a new left tackle.

Francis Mauigoa has immense upside as a potential left tackle in the NFL.

NFL Team Logo for Jets New York Jets: Caleb Downs, S, Ohio State Image for OSU

The Jets had a very disappointing secondary last season. They have talented cornerbacks who didn’t play up to par, but the safety performances were disappointing.

Caleb Downs projects as one of the top play-making safeties in the NFL in several years.

NFL Team Logo for Cardinals Arizona Cardinals: Keldric Faulk, DE, Auburn Image for Aub

The Cardinals have had a flimsy defensive line ever since J.J. Watt and Chandler Jones departed, so some talent is needed up front.

Keldric Faulk has been a monster for Auburn. He has a great mix of power and speed on the edge.

NFL Team Logo for Saints New Orleans Saints: LaNorris Sellers, QB, South Carolina Image for

The Saints may give up on Derek Carr by this point.

LaNorris Sellers has a huge skill set and could be drafted earlier than this if he lives up to his potential.

NFL Team Logo for Titans Tennessee Titans: Rueben Bain Jr., DE, Miami Image for MIA

The Titans had the second-worst pressure rate in the NFL last season. They’ll need to add to their pass rush.

Rueben Bain was very productive as a freshman and has a ton of upside.

NFL Team Logo for Buccaneers Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Mateo Uiagalelei, DE, Oregon Image for ORE

Tampa’s pass rush has declined in recent years, so upgrades will be needed on the edge.

Mateo Uiagalelei has great size, strength, and athleticism. He’s been very productive at Oregon.

NFL Team Logo for Chargers Los Angeles Chargers: Peter Woods, DE, Clemson Image for Clem

The Chargers have a very weak defensive line that must be addressed with multiple upgrades.

Peter Woods is a disruptive interior lineman.

NFL Team Logo for Bears Chicago Bears: Suntarine Perkins, LB, Ole Miss Image for Omiss

Chicago doesn’t have much going on with its edge rush outside of Montez Sweat.

Suntarine Perkins is a dangerous pass rusher, but needs to bulk up for the NFL.

NFL Team Logo for Cowboys Dallas Cowboys: Denzel Boston, WR, Washington Image for Wash

The Cowboys don’t have much at receiver outside of CeeDee Lamb.

Denzel Boston is a huge receiver with big-play potential.

NFL Team Logo for Steelers Pittsburgh Steelers: Antonio Kite, CB, Alabama Image for ALA

The Steelers didn’t have great play from their cornerbacks in large part last year, so they’ll need an upgrade at the position.

Antonio Kite started as a backup at Alabama, but he has the upside to be a good starter.

NFL Team Logo for Colts Indianapolis Colts: Anthony Hill Jr., LB, Texas Image for Tex

The Colts haven’t properly replaced Shaq Leonard, so they’ll have to do that in the near future.

Anthony Hill Jr. covered the field very well to begin his collegiate career.

NFL Team Logo for Raiders Las Vegas Raiders: Keon Sabb, S, Alabama Image for ALA

The Raiders’ safety situation is a mess. They had problems last year, and now both of their starters are impending free agents.

Keon Sabb has been a tough defender for Alabama and Michigan.
